Looking down on the city’s departures …

Posted on Fri, 27 Nov 2015

Men searching, seeking to understand … get a glimpse, but can't see the whole of the answer … only supernatural revelation can do that, fill in the gaps, even help us understand the words we are told, or as much as we need to know. Rhiannon

Interestingly put, Tina. So easy to get distraught over loose ends, and to miss 'jobs' more important or just noticing some beauty, which you so well describe.

(on rainbows, we were thrilled a couple of days ago in seeing a bright wide '...
